Longton House Number 33 And Attached Front Area Wall And Gate Piers

Longton House, number 33, is an attached building that has served various purposes, including a house, school, and bank, and is now used as offices. It dates from the early 19th century, with a late 19th-century school addition. The exterior features colourwashed render, ashlar copings, a pantile roof, and rendered end stacks, along with a rubble wall that has ashlar corners and gate piers.

The building has a double-depth plan and is two stories tall with a three-window range. The west front includes a plinth, cornice, and a blind parapet. The windows are mid 19th-century plate-glass sashes with margin glazing and horns. The central doorway is round-arched and features an open pediment on brackets, a six-panel door, and a radial fanlight. There is another doorway at the left end with a similar doorcase, but it has a 20th-century door and fanlight.

Inside, there are no surviving original room layouts or notable architectural features. The attached low wall at the front encloses the area and has short capped corners and gate piers. Historically, the building was originally named Longton House and functioned as a ladies' school in the late 19th century before becoming a mixed school until 1910.
